it was lame. They could have hinted at it way less and create an ARG of some sorts. Missed opportunity.

Or perhaps after the original Metal Gear after Solid Snake takes him down and before he gets all cyborged up?

Why is Snake so thin in this? Even if we're saying it's all a hallucination, he's still unnaturally thin. He's supposed to be fairly muscular
Maybe its post MGS4 solid snake even though Kojima said his story was finished?

not the scientist, the guy that was with whatever Snake that is. The voice sounded exactly like Kiefer.
No, Sutherland sounding guy was the other patient, doctor had an Eastern European accent
Also, regarding the british flag, in the car crash the steering wheel is on the right
First thing I noticed too. He's more muscular in Snake Eater and Peace Walker.
Maybe he's imprisoned/hospitalized for a long time and his muscles atrophy?

is it a next gen game? why are they announcing it now to have the game come out in 2014~15 when current gen is most definitely over?
graphics look alright, the models are good, but not really next gen...

If they hadn't shown him at the VGAs, we probably wouldn't have been looking at all the clues
My guess is not "Ground Zeroes"nor "The Phantom Pain" is the real subtitle for the next metal gear game.
Remember Kojima said GZ is the prologue to MGS5.
I bet this fucking game is MGS5 and the final subtitle hasn't been released yet.
Pretty much everyone, lmao. I was expecting a giant KojiPro logo at the end of the trailer.
Wondering this as well.

Why would (Solid) Snake hallucinate with Volgin?

In MGS4
Nano Machines.
I think it could be some failed clone of Big Boss, who's escaping the lab and is an exact replica or something.
big boss had two hands.. what is this?

Haha... so are they just gonna keep adding Big Boss clones to the universe whenever we need a new MGS game?

wait wait, what if all of those hospital patients are genome soldiers ? Maybe Big Boss was kept captive by Zero somewhere, where they took his genes and tried to implant them into other humans. Then things turn to shit and Zero tries to cover up the mess by killing every patient involved.

It looks like a current gen game enhanced with next gen lighting and mapping features.

It's more likely that Mogren refers to a football team in Montenegro (the country where Rising starts).
Also, Geoff said there would be a retro game reveal at the VGA's, and that ended up being Castlevania. He's likes to bend the truth.
This is a Big Boss game; they aren't going to make two Big Boss games. Therefore, it's Ground Zeroes.

BTW, heres some back story on Big Boss that might play into this game.

"Thanks for all the VGA feedback. The Phantom Pain is an a completely game, nothing that has been shown before. I assure you of that."
Boy, that explains everything. Thanks Geoff!

What is the woman saying at the very very end of the trailer? "V has come too"?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.

This is mgs mang, you trying to be logical?
The missing hand might just be from the Moby Dick inspired acid trip. So maybe it's not even that important...
there's also a land whale afterall.
OH GOD YES Metal Gear Acid: Phantom.

Cool I just can't resist posting in this thread because I can see this being one of the archived classic Gaf threads we all look back on many years from now. I can use this as proof for my grand kids that I did indeed get trolled by the great Kojima and it wasn't just another case of grandpa's dementia telling another crazy story.
Ha, the guy helping Snake has his butt on show through his gown.
Another thing I noticed that's probably nothing, but when an explosion goes off and it all goes slo mo and the little splinters of wood fly around, one looks and moves exactly like Snakes Cigar does at the start of MGS3.

Fucking Kojima man
Isn't that GZ image reversed? The eyepatch is on the wrong side and the Militaires Sans Frontiers patch is reversed.
They're replaying the VGA's. When did it happen in the show?
So I look watched that again. There's letters in the negative space of the game's logo.

That'd explain the missing arm. (grafted to ocelot) And the "you have been out for a long time" line
It's liquid, the rapid ageing that happened to snake must also happen to liquid.

yeah you are right. its probably BB.
Just tossing ideas out there and seeing what sticks.
If KojPro is working on two Big Boss games then thats interesting but I dont really want 2 more Big Boss games. :/

Yeah. I'm watching it now: they had "technical difficulties" right as Adam Scott was introducing it, then they cut to commercial (for a long time), then they're back to continue the show.

If he was in a coma or so badly injured he likely was hospitalized for a long time. He would lose alot of weight.
